Driving along the road to Black Head through Gerroa, we happened to see a sign between two houses saying Pathway.

Behind Gerroa, and down this track were rolling hills meeting the sea, and black cliffs, beyond a rocky cove. We ventured along the beach, until we reached the shelf beneath the cliff. Every so often a large wave would crash onto the platform, creating streams of water flowing along the ledges.

Around an isolated corner, beneath the cliff, a seal was sunning itself.
